Answer:

Power, P =9800 W

Explanation:

It is given that,

Mass of the elevator, m = 500kg

It is raised to a height of 20 m in 10 seconds

Power is defined as the work done per unit time.

P=\dfrac{W}{t}

Work done is given by :

W=mgh

h is the height

So, P=\dfrac{mgh}{t}

P=\dfrac{500\ kg\times 9.8\ m/s^2\times 20\ m}{10\ s}

P = 9800 Watts

Hence, the power of the motor is 9800 W. The correct option is (b).

An asteroid orbits the Sun every 176 years. What is the asteroids average distance from the Sun? P ^ 2 = a ^ 3 where p = period
KatRina [158]

Answer:

The value is  x =  45.99 \  Au

Explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The period of the  asteroid is   T =  176 \ years = 176 * 365 * 24 * 60* 60 = 5.55*10^{9}\ s

Generally the average distance of the asteroid from the sun is mathematically represented as

            R = \sqrt[3]{ \frac{G M * T^2 }{4 \pi} }

Here M is the mass of the sun with a value  

        M  =  1.99*10^{30} \  kg

         G  is the gravitational constant with value  G  =  6.67 *10^{-11}  \  m^3 \cdot kg^{-1} \cdot  s^{-2}

           R = \sqrt[3]{ \frac{6.67 *10^{-11}  * 1.99*10^{30} * [5.55 *10^{9}]^2 }{4 * 3.142 } }

=>       R = 6.88 *10^{12} \  m

Generally

         1.496* 10^{11}  \  m  \to  1 Au (Astronomical \  unit )

So

          R = 6.88 *10^{12} \  m \ \ \ \ \to \ \   x \  Au

=>      x =  \frac{6.88 *10^{12}}{1.496 *10^{11}}

=>       x =  45.99 \  Au

A projectile is fired from the ground at a velocity of 30.0 m/s, 35.0 º from the horizontal. What is the maximum height the proj
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

Vy = V sin theta = 30 * ,574 = 17.2 m/s

t1 = 17.2 / 9.8 = 1.76 sec to reach max height

Max height = 17.2 * 1.76 - 1/2 * 4.9 * 1.76^2 = 15.1 m

H = V t - 1/2 g t^2 = 1.2 * 9.8 * 1.76^2 = 15.1 m

Time to fall from zero speed to ground = rise time = 1.76 sec

Vx = V cos 35 = 24.6 m / sec     horizontal speed

Time in air = 1.76 * 2 = 3.52 sec before returning to ground

S = 24.6 * 3.52 = 86.6 m

What is the force required to move a block of mass 150 pound by a distance of 5ft in 8 seconds?
Nadusha1986 [10]

Force required to move a block is 1.615 N

Given:

mass of block = m = 150 pounds = 68 kg

distance = d = 5 ft = 1.52 metres

time = t = 8 sec

To Find:

force required to move the block

Solution: Force is defined as product of mass and acceleration and it's unit is N or Newton.

Velocity = displacement/ time = 1.52 / 8 = 0.19 m/s

Acceleration = velocity/time = 0.19/8 =

0.023 m/s^2

Force = mass x acceleration = 68x0.023 = 1.615 N

Hence, force required to move the block is 1.615 N
